Reclaiming His Omega: MM Alpha/Omega Shifter Mpreg

By Max Rose

Can an ex-soldier reclaim his love before their chance at happiness is gone?

Even though he's an omega wolf, Luca Santiago has managed to turn himself into a wildly successful business tycoon, buying struggling hotels and making them profitable again. But things get complicated when a hotel he's trying to buy belongs to the family of alpha wolf Griffin Kent. Griffin won his heart years ago...before leaving him to join the military. He's the one man Luca has never been able to forget. Once again, Luca is helpless to resist Griffin's alpha charms. The wolf shifter effortlessly brings out all the omega traits Luca has hidden away to achieve success. Their passion blazes up from where they'd left off, but loving Griffin brings out all Luca's vulnerabilities again, and after a scorching-hot night together, everything in his life is about to change forever.

After Griffin was wounded and honorably discharged from the military, he returned to his hometown to care for his ailing parents. Griffin is a different man now, struggling with his own demons and under pressure to conform to the burdens of an alpha. His father refuses to sell the family hotels because he wants his son to take over his legacy. Griffin doesn't want anything to do with the business. What he wants is Luca, and this time, he's going to keep him. But when Luca ends up pregnant with Griffin's child, he fears he's not ready to be a father because of his wounds and past mistakes. He's already lost Luca once, and it's looking as if his fears of being a bad father might be driving Luca away again. And this time, he's not sure his heart can take losing the omega he's come to love...

CHAPTER ONE

Even as an omega, Luca Santiago never got nervous. Even sitting in first class on a plane from New York to Washington DC to complete a business deal worth millions didn’t make him nervous. While other businessmen might’ve been on edge, Luca leaned back in his seat and drifted off to sleep. Million-dollar deals were nothing. But his dreams…those were something else entirely.

His mind brought those days back with seductive ease. As he walked through the long, well-worn college halls, his expensive shoes squeaking on the linoleum, he recognized old classmates and professors. But something was different. He felt it before he saw it. Instead of being a naïve, twenty-something omega as eager to find an alpha and get a degree, he strode the halls as he was today. A man of thirty-something who’d put aside those omega dreams and had learned to take care of himself.

He strode down the hall of the business studies building wearing an Armani suit, one of many in his room-sized walk-in closet. The jacket was lined with iridescent, color-shifting red and gold silk. At his wrist, his platinum Rolex glinted. In his inside pocket lay his Mont Blanc pen.

He was in control. Everything felt right, orderly, and as it should be. Until he opened the door, took a seat in the back row, and looked across the room.

There he was—Griffin Kent. Big and alpha and perfect. Just the sight of his gray eyes made all Luca’s confidence crumble and fall away.

Griff looked a little more weathered than Luca remembered. There was a heaviness to his expression, something closed-off and restrained. Was that a new scar on his arms? Several? They looked long-healed, but they were new. They hadn’t been there the last time Luca had seen him. And he had once known every inch of this man’s body as if it were his own.

The war. That’s where he’d gotten those scars. Luca’s heart ached at the thought of Griffin in a hospital bed while doctors picked shrapnel out of his skin. His sleeping mind took that thought and ran with it, and he found himself sitting in a shared room in a VA hospital. Griffin was hooked up to so many tubes and wires, machines around him beeping and clacking and whooshing, that Luca couldn’t tell where one tube ended and the other began.

He sank to his knees beside the bed and took Griffin’s phantasmal hand. He could almost feel the man’s calluses, smell his cologne. Back in college, it had been Joop. He grinned at that.

Come back, Griff, he whispered, his grin fading to hot tears, vertigo sweeping over him.

Griffin’s gray eyes flashed open. Over the oxygen mask, Luca met his gaze. He rose and pressed his forehead to Griffin’s, brushed a kiss between his eyes…

The sneeze of a passenger behind him startled Luca awake.

Blinking, he shifted in his first-class seat, then rang for a flight attendant.

A handsome young man in a crisp uniform came over immediately. Can I help you, sir?

Coffee. Black.

Right away, he affirmed.

Watching the young man march off, Luca noticed his perfect posture. He wondered if the guy was a military drop-out or if he’d been discharged honorably. For that matter, what about Griffin? Was he still in the service?

He shook his head. It was hard to say. They’d never had time to talk much while they’d been together…both of them hiding from parental judgment, from their fears of commitment, seeking temporary asylum in each other’s arms.

He still remembered every minute of it. Studying together in Astronomy, which they’d both taken to fill out their required course list. Griffin’s muscled arms, well-defined from years of building decks and renovating houses, which he flexed at every opportunity like a good alpha cub. Talking about the distances between stars—how, on a cosmic scale, they could be so close, yet were still millions of miles apart.

The way Griffin met his eyes and held his hand that night. How Griffin asked him if he wanted to stay and watch a movie, or maybe some Cosmos documentaries after they’d finished reviewing their notes.

Luca closed his eyes, trying to summon the ghost of Griffin’s kiss.

Instead, all he could remember was loss. The clipped texts, the e-mail about enlisting. Confronting Griffin in his dorm, tears in his eyes and a hitch in his throat, begging him to reconsider.

Couldn’t forget Griffin saying, I have to go. You wouldn’t understand.

Begging him not to drop out and enlist. The way Griffin had done just that anyway. Always protecting people like a damned alpha should.

Luca’s heart closed over at the memory. He clutched the paper cup a little too hard and hot coffee leaked over his fingers.

Leave it to a hot cup of coffee to jolt him out of his memories. Cursing, he dabbed at the spot on his leg, glad that none had landed on his silk tie and new white shirt.

Heading to the restroom, Luca met his own gaze in the mirror as he washed his hands and tidied up.

Get it together, he said under his breath to his reflection. You haven’t come this far by acting like a typical omega pushover. What would your father say?

Glancing away from his own eyes, he turned around and straightened his shirt and tie. Time to send that soft-hearted omega back to the past. Being an omega had never helped him. The hope of finding the alpha of his dreams to settle down with had evaporated long ago. If he wanted someone to take care of him and keep him in the lap of luxury, that someone was himself.

He stepped out of the restroom and headed back to his seat. He had things to do, people to see, deals to make. Daydreaming about the alpha he’d never have would just make him…weak.

He couldn’t be weak. Not now. The past was the past.

If passengers would please take their seats and put on their seatbelts, we’ll be coming in for a landing soon. We’ll be arriving in Washington DC in ten minutes.

Handing his empty coffee cup to the flight attendant, Luca adjusted his shirt and tie again and slid back into his seat on the aisle. Damn dreams and daydreams. What a waste of time. He wished he could have dreamed about crunching the numbers for this acquisition instead. Now, that would have been useful.

The plane landed, coasting along the landing strip to a stop and then taxiing to the gate. He was ready, his shirt straightened and his tie tightened. Stepping off the plane, he went through the gate and headed for the main exit.

As the cab headed to the address he’d given, Luca gazed out the window at the streets of Washington DC. He loved the way the streets circled past luxury hotels and historical buildings. It was nothing like the tall, smoky towers in downtown New York where he’d spent the last several years of his life, building his brand so he could expand to other cities in the United States. Eventually, he wanted to be able to take his business overseas.

Hotels had been his calling all along. He had an eye for both luxury and economy. Paying his workers a living wage had attracted the best employees. Together with the sustainable business practices and choosing building structures that were both gorgeous and eco-friendly, his company had gained a reputation for offering the best of all worlds. Their guilt-free getaways, as Luca called them, had made them a viral sensation. Hotels of the future, raved vloggers and reviewers.

And now he was reaping the fruit of
